Zoro Sanji Final

Decided to put them side by side! am happy with the result of the pic! i screwed up the layers and made a big mess of everything so it's fairly simple!

Korra Sketches

Very Excited about the new Korra Show!!

Skulls

Proud to say i drew all these skulls without references without taking forever to do them! been doing a lot of traditional drawing studies of the human skull and proportion etc! unfortunatel drawing skulls and faces is 2 very different things! XD

Kity Cat City

Enjoyed drawing this! colouring was really lazy but turned out well! used a mouse for this entire piece because i can't draw straight lines with a tablet XD Apparently this is 2 point perspective but i only drew 1 point! A lot better than my last attempt at perspective! Also the first time i've drawn a city!

Randoms

Well i was looking at all the different brushes in SAI it seems a shame that i only ever use a simple circle! next time i do some painting i'll have to make a point of using some different brushes!

then i feel like i've been in a bit of a slump lately so i just decided to draw a plain front on picture! i have to work on full body anatomy! bust shots don't help me improve! Look! someone other than Sokka! XD

Valentines Finished

Finished version!

Valentine Lines

Here are the lines! changed some stuff around! opened Toph's eye for starters! would rather see her eye than having it closed! hahaha and frik it was hard to find the design of her earth bracelet XD I am determined to finish this before Valentine's day! gah! let's see if i can get it together!

Head Painting

Hmm not sure what i think about this! painting practice but i've always had problems drawing faces in profile!

The Painted Lady

Final version! i like working in greyscale! did away with the lines in the end!

Progress

Well i've added the base shades! thought i'd aproach this picture in black and white to give her a more menacing look!

Kiwi

a quick painting of a kiwi! boy aren't these fellas cute! :D did you know they also come in white? XD

Nina Simone

A speed paint of one of my all time favourite jazz, blues, pop, soul singers of all time! Nina Simone! such a beautiful and emotional singer!

I am fairly happy with the depth of this picture! even though i feel like the lips feel rather disconnected from the face! that and she could probly use some eyelashes! XD

Enjoy some beautiful Nina Simone here!

Nico Robin

Well i am honestly fairly pleased with this picture! put a lot of time, thought and effort into it! hands bug me and so do t-shirts with many folds! i will have to make a point of studying them a bit more! The main thing that bugs me here is the face though! it's slightly out of proportion and seems strange to me! learned lot's about colouring with this piece! especially the skin!

Oh would you look at that! a black border! XD

Avatar Christmas

Ok so it's been a little while since Christmas but i thought i'd share the process steps of my Avatar Christmas picture.

The steps are as follows:
1. sketched out a rough idea of the composition of the piece. (as you can see very very rough XD)
2. re-sketched the design with correct proportions etc.
3. lineart.
4. added a simple gradient for background and then blocking in background colours/northern lights.
5. basically filled in all the base colours on a seperate layers.
6. determined where the lightsource is coming from and added basic shading.
7. added words and an overlay layer to brighten the picture up.

The Contortionist

Time for a bit of colour and painting practice! happy with how this came out! yes strange pose! XD

Shower Painting

Greyscale painting done in SAI, playing with the oil tool.
